re: Amy Winehouse nominated for six Grammy awards

I was shocked to see that she's not had a non-soundtrack album sell over 100,000 copies. I think her claim to fame as a recording artist would be The Cabaret Soundtrack (With "Maybe This Time" and "Cabaret" serious record of the year possibilities), Liza with a Z Soundtrack and "New York New York" (Which won it's awards for Frank Sinatra).

I wouldn't call her a powerhouse recording artist, but when you see crap like Bette's Christmas album get nominated...Those "Traditional Pop vocal" categories are pretty damn thin.

Just playing devil's advocate here, but at least Bette has had some significant recording success outside of the soundtrack arena. Liza's recording success is solely tied to her film or concert career.

One album does not make a legend - sorry Liza fans.

I had that Charles Aznavour album she did - I loved it. Probably not a big seller though.

I don't begrudge Bette's mountains of Grammys for "The Rose" or even "Wind Beneath my Wings" - I just think a not-quite-thirty minute long collection of by-the-book Xmas songs with not a spark of originality or style is really award-winning.

My point was more that with a hundred categories, sometimes the third or fourth slot in some of the "lesser" fields is really...um...REACHING deep into the bins for a suitable nominee. Hence Eddie Blonczak and the Versatones score of "best traditional Polka" nods.

The traditional album category is always a difficult category. This year is no difference. Even Streisand's live performance was nominated and I though she sounded horrible (I am a fan). Buble will probably win - he is the Sinatra/Bennett heir apparent, so he should be a shoo-in.

You do so begrudge Wind Beneath My Wings.

She deserved every award there is for The Rose, both acting and singing, but pretty much everything she's done from the 90s on has been just awful.

And see..

Here I totally agree with Bad.

He brought up a great point, because, frankly (as a Liza impersonator) she hasn't done a thing to warrent a Grammy.

Wow Diva, I'm shocked you'd put in writing that you agree with me considering our bitch-fest on the other posting.

And don't look now, but I haven't brought up the subject of how much sex I am having at all during this thread. Shoots your theory in the other thread to sh*t, huh.

LOL - let's be friends. You are too well hung for me to be angry at you.

Honey, I love you, that's why I care.


I can look at things as they are. If I don't agree with you in one thread, that doesn't mean I don't like you or would hate you in other threads.

I think you need a little smacking about now. re: Amy Winehouse nominated for six Grammy awards

A little - that would be too much of a tease. I want to see the results of our meeting for days after we part.
